I know you told that patience is key, it's just it's really pretty and i wanted my clowns to have one but something told me i should wait and i have a habit of telling that something to shut up, which i should listen to it.
I know anemones release a toxic when they die so i've been watching the bubble tip very closely.
Yeah i know Clowns dont need one cause my pair was fine w/o one for a year in my 55gal.

Nah, you dont sound harsh, i know you're trying to help as does Randy & Adriene
If anybody is willing to buy it & try to save it, PM me. I paid about 40 bucks for it so i'll let it go for 20.

Not to steal your thread, but what does everyone thing about pc's. I just set up a bc29 for a GSM pair and would like to add a BTA. Is the pc's a bad idea, if so no big deal it gives me a reason to add some led's

My understanding is PCs are not very effective with anemones.

If you want to try to find a new home to save your bubble tip, you should probably post in the for sale or trade section. You might get more traffic in those areas. We have 4 already, so there is no room at this inn.

Clowns will often host in other things, easier to keep that anemones. We have seen them host in things like torch corals, frogspawn, and even star polyps. Just make sure the coral is big enough to not be killed by all the clown lovin..
You might even be able to make a trade for something in exchange for the struggling anemone.

You need to find that anemone another home right away.

As most folks know, I've had over 20 anemones reproduced in my tanks. Mine are almost never fed. I have a Rose BTA that's about 14" wide. Eats only what the fish don't.

2 weeks? When I set up my 215 it went 2 months without a fish. Even when I reset my 215 up for freshwater, it went 6 weeks before a fish went in it. Bad, bad things happen in this hobby to those that rush.

Oh wow dude, two weeks? I'd remove you're anenome and fish. I've got a 75 if you want me to house the anenome until your tank gets stablished.

X2 for chris and bill, best advice I ever got was to stop feeding my BTAs.

Additionally, and especially with a new tank, don't add too much at one time. Add a fish. Wait a week or two. Add another fish and wait a week or two. Looks like you added two bta at once in a new tank. Add something that poops you got to give your filtration ample time to atke the added bio load

Jmho, take it for what it's worth.
